Capital City.
Liang Sheng’s Martial Arts Technique: Golden Dragon Art had broken through once again, and his Unmoving Ming King Seal had been cultivated to the fifth level, allowing his cultivation speed to accelerate once more.
However, after the Golden Dragon Technique broke through the eleventh level, the result was not as Liang Sheng imagined. It did not break the limit and surpass the innate realm; his martial arts realm remained in the innate realm.
Although the strength within his body had increased exponentially, even the No-Life Sect Leader would pose no threat if he appeared in front of him now.
Simply put, twenty years ago he could now fight against ten of his former self at the Innate Realm. This is the invincible power brought by the Golden Dragon Technique after it broke through the eleventh level.
However, his martial arts realm remained innate, casting a shadow over Liang Sheng’s heart. It seems that martial arts techniques can indeed break through infinitely, but they cannot achieve qualitative changes.
The power can continue to grow stronger, but the essence cannot change. Martial arts techniques are ultimately just martial arts techniques, and he is still just a mortal body.
Cultivation…
Thinking of this, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but gaze into the distance towards the Imperial City. He would probably have to wait for the opportunity to go to the Imperial Palace and search for the secret of cultivation mentioned by the No-Life Sect followers back then.
Even though he’s not completely confident yet, he will continue waiting. Time is not a problem; what he lacks least is time.
More importantly, during these twenty years, the Dayan dynasty has been in decay, and the opportunity he has been waiting for will surely come soon.
There’s no hurry, just patiently waiting for the day the Dayan dynasty falls into chaos. Liang Sheng doesn’t believe that the Dayan royal family will keep their trump card hidden…
When that time comes…
Liang Sheng shook his head, no longer dwelling on it, calming his excited heart. He will watch the passage of time and see who will ultimately rise and fall.

Old Zhang was still selling steamed buns, but now he had an extra helper. His son had slowly started taking over, after all, Old Zhang was getting older.
As for Little Liang, he had become Old Liang. His relationship with Old Zhang had grown even closer over the past twenty years. They had become like close family friends.
“Old Liang, come to my house for a drink at noon. I advised you to get married years ago, but now you’re still a widower…”
Old Zhang was somewhat disappointed, but he just wanted to invite him to have a meal together. However, Liang Sheng shook his head.
“I have some family matters to attend to outside the city today. I’ll look for you to drink when I come back.”
“All? Alright.”
Before leaving, Old Zhang skillfully took a book, his own son needed more practice. Next time, he would let him come personally.
Outside the City.
Liang Sheng walked along a country road with two servants, and soon they arrived at a small village. At this moment, there was a lively atmosphere in front of a family’s house, with children running around and joyful laughter.
Today was the wedding day of Zheng Wanchun’s grandson, who now had the last name Guan. In these twenty years, the once little baby had grown up into an adult.
As Liang Sheng entered the village, many people noticed him. After all, his clothes alone were more impressive than those of any local rich man in town.
“I’m passing by today, and I wonder if the host would allow me to have a cup of wedding wine?”
At this moment, a simple old man came out, wiping his hands on his clothes. Seeing Liang Sheng being so polite, he relaxed for some reason.
“Since you’re here, you’re a guest. If the guest doesn’t mind our humble village and would like to have a drink of our wedding wine, it would be our honor.”
Perhaps it was because of Liang Sheng’s aura, or maybe it was the hospitable nature of the family. Liang Sheng was invited to their main table, and he did not act reserved. His two servants sat down at the side tables.
The dishes on the main table weren’t very luxurious, but in this day and age, simply surviving was good enough, let alone having wine to drink.
The two words “Kaiping” from Dayan dynasty seemed like a joke.
At first, the atmosphere at the main table was rather restrained. But after a few glasses of wine, Liang Sheng let loose. Soon enough, the atmosphere became lively.
Just then, “The groom is bringing the bride home.”
In an instant, everyone looked towards the door. Since it was an ordinary rural household, there were not many formalities. The bride was wearing a red silk scarf, and one could see her face. She seemed to be virtuous and prosperous.
After the ceremony of bowing before Heaven and Earth and the parents, the bride was sent to the bridal chamber. Naturally, the groom began to toast table by table, with the first being the main table. He saw Liang Sheng and was taken aback, but then old Guan whispered an explanation in his ear.
Afterward, the groom regained his composure and toasted everyone. Liang Sheng didn’t say much, but in the middle of it all, he took the opportunity to pat the groom. The groom’s spirit immediately lifted, and even his tipsiness disappeared.
The groom didn’t pay it much attention at the time, thinking people’s spirits were just high during happy events. When the feast was over, Liang Sheng excused himself and left.contemporary romance
That night, old Guan and his wife, along with the newlywed couple, were sorting through the gifts given by the guests when the old woman suddenly let out a gasp.
“What’s wrong?”
“Look at this.”
It was a silver note worth a hundred liang. In an instant, everyone’s breathing grew heavier. “It was from that old man who came for a drink of celebration.”
“All Zheng, you are so lucky.”
That night, the old couple listened to the creaking noises from next door for an hour, and couldn’t help but smile. It seemed they would soon be holding their grandchild, as little Zheng had a strong body.
Guan Zheng also found it strange that his body seemed much better, but since he couldn’t figure it out, he didn’t dwell on it. After all, a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold.
Meanwhile, in the north of the capital city, Liang Sheng had also returned home. Instead of heading to the Dusty Garden, he was drinking alone in the courtyard.
“Sheriff Zheng, have a safe journey.”
He then poured a cup of wine on the ground. The bright moon in the sky remained unchanged, as did Liang Sheng. However, many people and things in the world had already changed.
Capital City.
At this time, Emperor Kaiping seemed to be in the prime of his life, but he had failed in martial arts and was infatuated with wine and women. His body had already been hollowed out.
At this moment, in the Golden Hall, he let out a yawn. Qin Gang immediately stepped forward, “If you have matters, report them. If not, withdraw from the court.”
The officials below looked at each other, but no one came forward, as all the outspoken officials were already in the Sky Prison.
Seeing this, Emperor Kaiping did not hesitate and directly got up and left, while the officials below remained silent, slowly exiting the great hall.
The sunlight was dazzling, Prime Minister Zhang Zhengju raised a hand to shield his eyes, then turned to the Minister of Rituals and said, “Make sure there are no mistakes in the 20th-anniversary ceremony for His Majesty’s reign the day after tomorrow. Remember to pick some good people to greet him on the way. Don’t allow the troublemakers to clash with His Majesty’s carriage.”
The Minister of Rituals naturally understood what Zhang Zhengju meant, “Prime Minister, rest assured, there will be no problems. We have already prepared everything with the good people.”
Zhang Zhengju nodded, said nothing more, and strode out of the Imperial Palace. Before leaving, he looked back in the direction of the Imperial Garden.
That person was probably still enjoying themselves to the fullest.

Liang Sheng was originally taking a nap in the afternoon, but old Zhang suddenly came up cursing, “Old Liang, we don’t have to open for business the day after tomorrow.
The officials say all the merchants in our area have to go outside the city to welcome His Majesty during the ceremony. We won’t have any business that day.
These damned days…”
Old Zhang didn’t care about Liang Sheng’s silence and continued cursing softly. Their livelihood had been declining over the past twenty years, but they could barely maintain their lives. After all, how many people in North City didn’t have a stable background?
The court had a simple reason for drafting them this time. If they were to let ordinary people come, they would probably be met with complaints and troubles.
Liang Sheng naturally understood what was going on, but he never thought that even with such arrangements, there would still be a big problem on the day of the ceremony.
A huge problem!
